FAA Part 107 Drone Practice Test

Class G airspace is classified as uncontrolled airspace. This type of airspace is not governed by air traffic control and is free for pilots to operate without the requirement to communicate with air traffic control facilities.

In Class G airspace, pilots must rely on their own judgment and situational awareness, as there may not be any active traffic management or monitoring by air traffic controllers. The absence of control means that pilots operating in this airspace must adhere to visual flight rules (VFR) and maintain separation from other aircraft based on their own observational skills.

The other types of airspace mentioned, such as controlled airspace, are specifically managed by air traffic control to ensure safe and orderly traffic. Restricted airspace is designated for specific purposes, such as military operations, where access is limited to authorized personnel. Shared airspace is typically a term that can refer to airspace used by both controlled and uncontrolled operations, but it would not accurately describe the classification of Class G airspace, which is definitively uncontrolled.
